Count 100+ in Capelin Cove area. Originally found by T. Power in 2014. North of Peter’s Lake.

with Salix vestita, in fruit

Unfortunately I don't have accurate coordinates, but this was observed during field work in this area.

Probably the best example of this I’ve seen.
Fronds really big, broadly triangular, with pointed pinna.

wpt 1483

Floodplain of the Wallace River.

Coordinates purposely inaccurate and imprecise

Discovered by Nick Hill. Visited location and collected for Acadia Herbarium- first record for Nova Scotia.

See observation by @johnklymko too.

A few of them

Quite a few plants here.

On crowberry barren windswept coastal headland, near edge of cliff. A few scattered around. Plants very small, not much taller than the crowberry, so difficult to see.

Foraging on Hieracium along dark track int he woods

On cliff face
Taken from boat - sorry, a bit blurry

Only one blooming. I think the involucral leaves are at ground level. Growing on gypsum talus.

Same location as previously observed, returned to see them in bloom. Most past blooming by now.

Second picture has both A. trichomanes (large upper plants against edge of rock) & A. viride (smaller centre & bottom left)

Quite a few, at least a few hundred, on a road going through a Christmas tree farm.
Big thanks to Tom Rogers for taking us there.

Previously known from this location. Very rare in NS and the Maritimes.

scattered and well established over about 50m First found by @mtimmons early this summer. In natural riverside thicket swamp. No other potentially native records in NS.

As previously observed by Sean Blaney.

Rich floodplain site. S2 in Nova Scotia

Very plentiful at Smileys, covering entire forest floor in one spot!

Growing in a gorge, in the woods, at the edge of a scree slope.
